A synthetic route of ambroxol hydrochloride is disclosed in 'ambroxol hydrochloride technical innovation' published in Yuan Chun Hu, 2-amino-3, 5-dibromobenzaldehyde is used as a starting material, and ambroxol hydrochloride is prepared through two-step reaction, wherein the specific process is that
Figure BDA0002272503650000012
The product trans-4- [ (2-amino-3, 5-dibromobenzylidene) amino ] cyclohexanol obtained by the first step of condensation reaction of the method needs to be separated independently, but the property is unstable, hydrolysis is easy to occur, the storage is difficult, the quality is difficult to guarantee even after refining, and the reaction time of the step is 10-15 hours, and the time is long; the second step of the method is to introduce hydrogen chloride gas for salt formation, and the operation is not easy in the actual production; and the sodium borohydride aqueous solution is adopted, so that the reducibility is strong, the water absorption and oxidation are very easy in the air, the storage condition requirement is strict, and the sodium borohydride aqueous solution and the air are highly toxic substances, so that the sodium borohydride aqueous solution is greatly harmful to a human body after being contacted for a long time and cannot adapt to large-scale production.
In the text entitled "synthesis of ambroxol hydrochloride", published by the same inventor, 3, 5-dibromo-2-aminobenzaldehyde and trans-4-aminocyclohexanol are condensed, the condensation product is refined by tetrachloroethylene to obtain trans-4- [ (2-amino-3, 5-dibromobenzylidene) amino ] cyclohexanol (Schiff base), the obtained product is dissolved in anhydrous methanol, then sodium borohydride is added for reduction, then the obtained product is subjected to extraction and other post-treatments to obtain a crude ambroxol hydrochloride product, the crude ambroxol hydrochloride product is reacted with concentrated hydrochloric acid to obtain a crude ambroxol hydrochloride product, and the crude ambroxol hydrochloride product is obtained by water refining. The reaction route is as follows:
Figure 1
the reaction route of the method is the same as that disclosed by Yuan Chun Hu et al, and the intermediate trans-4- [ (2-ammonia-3, 5-dibromobenzylidene) amino ] cyclohexanol also needs to be separated separately. In addition, sodium borohydride is used as a reducing agent, water absorption and oxidation are easy to occur in the air, the storage condition is strict, and the sodium borohydride is a highly toxic substance, so that the sodium borohydride is harmful to a human body after being contacted for a long time and cannot adapt to large-scale production.
DE2207460 uses trans-4-aminocyclohexanol to react with compound 4 to obtain compound 3, then passes through LiAlH4Reduction in tetrahydrofuran to give compound 2, and final reduction with Br2Bromination gives the product, the reaction equation is as follows:
Figure BDA0002272503650000022
the method uses LiAlH4Reduction reaction, the danger is higher; when molecular bromine is used as a brominating reagent, the theoretical utilization rate of the molecular bromine in the reaction process is only 50 percent, and the molecular bromine is industrially generatedIn terms of production, the method is a waste of resources, and the other half of molecular bromine generates corrosive hydrogen bromide in the reaction process, so that the corrosive hydrogen bromide severely corrodes industrial equipment, the service life of the industrial equipment is greatly reduced, and the method is not favorable for large-scale production.
In the preparation method of ambroxol hydrochloride disclosed in CN103012167A, 2-amino-3, 5-dibromobenzaldehyde and trans-4-aminocyclohexanol are used as raw materials, and the method is carried out by a one-pot method, although the route is simple and convenient to operate and short in reaction time, lithium aluminum hydride or sodium borohydride is used for reduction reaction, so that the reaction risk is increased, the cost is increased, and the method is not suitable for industrial production.
Figure BDA0002272503650000031
